  1. It's a huge fucking pain. My wife and I book tickets to go together, so now we'll have to co-ordinate booking so that we're sitting together. I'm in the process of writing a complaint letter and if there's no reconsideration it gets cancelled. They're not having £40 a month off us (+ the millions pound Mrs JB spends on sweets) for this level of experience. Edit: I say letter, obviously it was actually an electronic submission. Edit 2: HAHAHAHA.
  2. The little tack on for Optimus in robot heaven was nice. Still disgusted that they gave Wheeljack an off-screen jobber death in the film #justiceforwheeljack.
  3. I don't follow any of the British leagues, apart from having a vague awareness of them. Just like the Milano Seamen.
  4. Yes, and kind of. Quite a bit came out from the ELF which normally was along the lines of imports getting a few grand a month (during the season only) and maybe room and board. From my understanding everyone else was on a sliding scale to the point that a majority of the squads would have been essentially amateurs who were getting their basic kit and travel expenses covered.
  5. Yes different London teams in each league. One already plays and one is set to start in the 2027 season. Neither are the London Monarchs
  6. Did anyone ever follow the ELF (European League of Football) and subsequent fallout? They got permission to use a load of the old NFL Europe names so you had the Frankfurt Galaxy and Rhein Fire etc playing once more for a few years. I never got a new Amsterdam Admirals or *London Monarchs before it all fell apart The ELF splintered into the European Football Alliance, which should have a London team in 2027 (the London Guard playing at Brisbane Road), and the American Football League Europe, which already has the London Warriors in it. *Lineage wise AFLE has the Berlin Thunder who replaced the London Monarchs in NFLE. Great decision to host the EFA Championship Game at the Tivoli Stadium, home of the Raiders Tirol, as that thing looks gorgeous with the mountains in the background.
  7. Lions tonight. Will add others in another post.
  8. I present for your consideration, "Hi... I'm Ed Winchester" from The Fast Show as a fine Ed.
  9. Des off of Old Friend Club on Instagram where they chat to old people in nursing homes about their lives. He always talked about his late wife so fondly.
  10. I was given a voucher for a shop which I put towards a nose hair trimmer.
  11. https://www.imax.com/en/gb/movie/indiana-jones-and-raiders-lost-ark Remastered and touched up to look good and sound sexy in an IMAX cinema screen as opposed to something that's shot specifically in IMAX format for an IMAX cinema.
  12. Raiders Of The Lost Ark I must have seen the Christmas Day family friendlier cut so many times that I'd maybe missed a lot of the grizzly deaths outside of the face melting. It's 12A now, instead of PG. Still tremendous, but how did Indy survive the submarine journey? I reckon that was the first time I'd seen it at the cinema as even I was too young when it first came out and usually it was one of the recorded from TV VHSes we'd pick off the shelf at my aunt's, as she was the only one at the time with a VCR. Watching Raiders or Star Wars on the toploader as we had sausage and chips with her and my nan brings back such lovely memories I'm off for a little cry.
  13. I'm sorry for your loss. Sounds a bit trite, but be kind to yourself and give yourself some time. I think feeling lost is a normal part of the grief. I've linked to a page of resources below that might be useful to look through if you want/need some practical things to look at or someone at the end of a helpline to talk to. https://www.mind.org.uk/information-support/guides-to-support-and-services/bereavement/support-and-self-care/
  14. Crosspost from gigs you can watch at home. Truly Outrageous~!
  15. I found a, relatively, local screening on the Friday as I'm already committed to something on the Thursday. I shall go to the ball.
  16. APPLEJUICE~!
  17. That can't be rig... JFC.
